so digging a little bit in the script created by homey in the shelly that has to act as proxy it’s clear that:
- Yes, the Shelly device running the script needs to be within BLE range of the devices it is scanning for (the supported Shelly BLU devices) in order to communicate with them.
It means that if I want to use shelly cloud and homey I need to have one device acting for gateway and one device acting as proxy in the close range of the blu devices…otherwise they will not send their status to homey but only to shelly cloud
I also tried this configuration with a shelly motion but failed communication with homey is frequent while comunication with shelly cloud is not, I will try to get the proxy device closer but it’s actually 3 mt away with a tiny wall between.
I do not understand why the home assistant shelly integration do not have this problem
